DIY: Find Peak Element

Explore how to identify a peak element in an integer array, where the peak is greater than its neighbors. Understand the constraints and develop an O(log n) algorithm to efficiently solve this interview question. This lesson prepares you to handle similar real-world coding problems.

Problem statement

Given an integer array nums, find a peak element and return its index. If the array contains multiple peaks, return the index to any of the peaks.

A peak element is an element that is strictly greater ...
